It is funny how often the bridges we build turn into historical sites to be admired, while the pictures we paint just become an asset to be auctioned.

this was so unbelievably overlooked and under-rated. do NOT let this score slow you down! it's a shame that images like this easily get lost in the shuffle of larger challenges when people don't give them the time they need.

thanks everyone, I love the idea and hate the image myself, poor focus, awful color, it was my first submission to a challenge however, so please don't be too harsh. At least there is A LOT of space for imporvement :)

I wish I could work out what this is. A top-down view into a glass?

Intriguing concept, but picture isn't quite working for me. The colors? Tthe lack of clarity to the objects in (under, through, who knows?) the glass? The sad meaning of alcohol being a bridge?

I can't recognize what this is, so I really can't tell wether it fits the challenge or not. The image's appeal is not so strong for me. 4.

IMO a little to far out of the box for me. Your picture has great color but no real focal point and I still don't see where it ties into the 'bridges' challenge.

I looked for a long time, I don't know what I'm looking at.

I gotta admit I have no idea what I'm looking at :\

OK, this is an interesting take on the challenge, certainly. But I am not sure I reallu understand the connection here. I like the picture, I fear it will be voted down though. (5)

It's not clear what is to be found at the bottom of the glass. I guess that could be the point, except the title - if we take it at face value - suggests otherwise. It's clever construction is completely wasted on me from the twee violet background with rose to the surreal green environment in which the only element I can identify appears to be a blue wastebasket.

Very nice shot! Love the concept and the title is very befitting. I absolutely love the images you can see through the glass. Well done! I give you a 7

nice idea, similar to one i had! i like it.

Very cleverly shot, but think I am missing out on the link to bridges. Booze bridging the fear of socialising? Hmm. Hope your border is ok, think they can be funny on here about borders that use any kind of photoshop effect like beveling.

great concept. 5 from me. the flower does not look real to me and doesn't seem to fit the image's theme. also the image reflected in the glass looks like a school cafeteria. would have been much better if it clearly showed a social scene, like a cocktail party. Great creativity though!

Love the title. Makes the shot fit the challenge. I wish SOMEthing was clearly in focus here - maybe the olive. I think that would do wonders for this shot. Not sure how I feel about the flower, but having something else in the shot is a good idea. A quick run thru Neat Image helps a lot.
